Is the Triune God to be found in the book of Esther? 

Jesus, on the day we celebrate His first coming wants souls, not material gifts that bring temporary happiness. Let us gladden ourselves in the delighting of glorifying our Savior by proclaiming His amazing grace and mercy this Christmas season.

“...Therefore I testify to you this day that I am innocent of the blood of all, for I did not shrink from declaring to you the whole counsel of God.”

The American Church has all too confided her U.S. military with the burden of Islam. Yet, King Jesus is of inexhaustible worth, and because He is inexhaustibly worthy, the Church should not relent in zealous advancements of the Gospel, just as our nation does not relent in zealous defense of its nationalistic freedoms.

Encouragement is more than, "You're doing a good job!" Barnabas exemplifies a life laid down to Christ for the uplifting of the Churches head. As the Gospel advances and we approach the return of Jesus, the need for those like Barnabas will be essential for the health and life of the Church as it presses onward.  

He came, so we go. Christ coming to us is all the motivation we should need to take Christ to others. If we adore the God-man Christ Jesus and what He has done for us, the natural response of one's adoration is to share the reason for such an adoration.
